Hello.
I noticed oil leaks under the car kind of under the oil filter. As I put my hand round the filter from the downside, there was a lot of oil on the filter towards the engine block. I thought it's coming from the oil filter itself, not being tight enough.
I changed the oil and the oil filter.
I have these pictures I took before changing the oil and filter and with filter off. Is that leaking coming from filter or could it come from somewhere else?
With the new filter, the situation is kind of the same. I don't know if I've tightened the filter enough or what's going on there. There is a lot of oil on the filter side towards the engine block.
What's your opinion? Where is the problem?
Thank you!
